Boston, Massachusetts, was once home to one of the first major Syrian communities in the United States, starting in the 1890s. This was at a time when Syrians fought to be classed as “white” to gain citizenship. Though no physical traces of “Syriantown” remain, the memory of the vibrant community lives on in one of its last surviving residents: Olivia Waishek.

“There is no proper housing, no good life,” a Syrian refugee named Farouk told VICE News correspondent Milène Larsson in Berlin. “There is no good food, no work. Some people have to wait for a year to start learning German. People say it’s our fault, no.”
When the migrant crisis began to overwhelm Europe last year, German Chancellor Angela Merkel stood out for her insistence on opening the country to newcomers. More than a million refugees moved in, and now Merkel’s popularity is waning.
“Our rooms are very cramped,” Farouk said. “No money, nothing that we can build a life with. There is nothing that gives us hope for tomorrow.”
This segment originally aired Nov. 14, 2016, on VICE News Tonight on HBO.

A Syrian refugee is using social media to dispel what he says are myths about what life as a migrant is like in Sweden.
\"They give you a big house, a nice car and a job and lots of money... that\'s what Syrians back home think Sweden offers asylum seekers,\" Mahmoud Bitar told BBC Trending.
The reality, Bitar says, is that life in the Nordic country is much more difficult than most anticipate. Bitar\'s humour and willingness to share the story of his journey out of Syria to Sweden has made him something of a social media star.
But is life in Sweden really that bad for a migrant? BBC Trending visited Bitar to find out.

Six years of civil war has left most of Syria, a country once known for its ancient cities, in ruins.
On the battlefield, Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad’s forces continue to fight a loose, and increasingly diminished collection of anti-government rebels. While in the country’s east, coalition forces have crippled a once fearsome ISIS, driving the group from its strongholds.
War continues to rattle much of the country, and peace remains a notion far off in the distance, but one thing has come into focus with each passing day: Assad isn’t going anywhere.
To see what life is like under Assad’s rule, VICE New sent Isobel Yeung to Syria just as the final bombs were falling over Aleppo.

Lebanon has long been known for being the sex tourism capital of the Middle East. For years people from around the region have flocked to its “super night clubs” in the hope of meeting and sleeping with women. But the influx of Syrian refugees has pushed more people into the sex industry, with many Syrians turning to prostitution to survive. Benjamin Zand from BBC Pop Up meets Syrian refugees who say they had no other choice but to become prostitutes, and finds out how European women in \"super night clubs\" are being locked up, by law, everyday.
